Group Meeting

November 20, 2023 @ 12:00 - 14:00

We have two members of staff coming from the Chestnut Unit to update us on what is happening at Derriford and specifically in the urology department. It would seem important that as many of us as possible should be there for this.

Have you received a diagnosis of either bladder or kidney cancer? Would you find it helpful to talk to someone local about it and your experiences?  It can feel very lonely as a patient or a carer at such times.  All of us in the group, men and women, have been affected by these cancers, either as a patient or as one of their close family or friends. We would be very pleased to meet up with you, talk to you and welcome you to events if you wish. We may be having different treatments, be at different stages and have different reactions but we have all had a cancer diagnosis. We don’t offer medical advice; we are patients and close supporters who have found it helpful to talk to people who find themselves in a similar situation.

We arrange to have talks by medical and other specialists, we also get out on walks and trips. Check this website for details of events.  If you want to contact us please e-mail   bcsg.derriford@virginmedia.com and one of the members will get back to you.
